EVALUATION
Reopen bug.
Received confirmation from support engineer that removing the synchronization from sun.applet.AppletSecurity.checkAccess(Thread t) did indeed fix the deadlock problem seen by Yokogawa when their application opening multiple applets in the browser simultaneously.
Will petition to get this fix in to 6.0 b96.

EVALUATION
No information is provided for debug purpose after my last status update left over a month ago.
Will close out this bug.

EVALUATION
A temporary patch with removal asynchroneous sun.applet.AppletSecurity.checkAccess() can be provided for customer to test (as I do not have any testcase information on this bug submission).
However, will need to know:
- Which version of JRE customer needs 1.5.0, 6.0, or 1.4.2. If it's 1.5.0 or 6.0, I can provide the patch. If 1.4.2, will need help from CTE to provide the patch.
- which platform/OS?
Please get back soon.

EVALUATION
Also, can customer provide a testcase to reproduce problem now so that in case the patch doesn't fix their problem, I can have some way to work on further debugging?
Plus, please submit stack traces (with vm running in verbose) when hang occurs.
I do not have any of this info as I inherited this CR from another engineer who's already left the team.

EVALUATION
This requires significant changes to the applet startup code. We will address this issue in mustang.

I found that the sun.applet.AppletSecurity.checkAccess(Thread t) method need not be synchronized, in which case there will be no deadlock. CTE engineer is verifying this with the customer.

I inherited this bug from Deva. Since we do not have test applet to reproduce this problem, per Deva's advice, CTE should try removing "synchronized" from sun.applet.AppletSecurity.checkAccess(Thread t) and verifying with customer to see if this helps the problem.
We've not since heard anything back from CTE. Can we hear a status update?
###@###.### 2005-04-26 20:26:49 GMT
I've not heard back from CTE regarding status of trying the fix suggested by Deva on customer system. I'll leave this bug opened for another 2 weeks. Please get back to me within the next two weeks, otherwise I'll close out this bug.
###@###.### 2005-05-19 01:47:13 GMT
Still no input from either CTE or submitter on this bug. Will close it.
